Original Wikitext content:

A **comma** is a small just interval, greater than 1 and not a power such as a square or cube of any other interval, generally in a [[Harmonic Limit|low prime limit]]. The word is often used in reference to [[Regular Temperaments|regular tempering]] when the comma is //tempered out//, which is to say reduced to a unison, by the temperament. For example the Didymos comma of 81/80 is tempered out by [[Meantone|meantone temperament]].
